Bush Hager, a correspondent for the morning program, was also joined on the couch by husband, Henry. "We have so much to look forward to," he said.

As a surprise, the couple then got a live phone call from George W. Bush and Laura Bush. "I'm fired up!" George said. "I could barely contain the news when I found out, so now I can tell my buddies."
